Weather settings: what's wrong with the wind graph?

The wind graph shows wrong values.

Like clockwork

So, did you understand where the problem lies, or are you only denying it - like clockwork? 😁

What is the sim really doing I wonder? Load a plane with avionics that gives you wind data and have a look.

YMCA ... sorry ... mistyped. YMTP (=you missed the point).

Yep the graph doesnt match the inputted values

I think its just a mismatch in the display and the actual wind in the sim is as inputted, I'll take a look next flight.

Good catch. I honestly didn't even catch that there is a graph, but as long as the sim reflects it, it's not a big deal to me. Though to be honest, I only fly with real time weather 99.9% of the time. Sporadically, I use custom weather to test out things. You can report that bug via zendesk, instead of here, for the team to look over:

I think he's saying this is not the type of response the OP is looking for. You're too measured and reasonable, you see lol

Ah fair enough! Thought he was responding to me. Sorry about that.

Yeah the UI has been weird since the early days. I remember the compass having two West points in one of the preview videos.
